They loved faithfully and unconditionally. Marriage, for them, meant forever. And I knew, deeply, unquestioningly, that was what I would have as well. So, when my marriage fell apart, I was lost.

I questioned if I would ever find love, if I would ever have a family of my own. How could I give my heart to someone again? How could I again risk this humiliation, this hurt? And how could I figure out who, exactly, I was?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/biden-nearly-invisible-own-christmas-family-photo-hunter-takes-center-stage-position\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>BIDEN NEARLY INVISIBLE IN OWN CHRISTMAS FAMILY PHOTO AS HUNTER TAKES CENTER STAGE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>But her second marriage worked out \u2014 Jill and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/person\/joe-biden\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Joe Biden<\/a> married in 1977 and remain together nearly five decades later.<\/p>\n<p>The New Castle County <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/us\/crime\/police-and-law-enforcement\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Police Department<\/a> announced Tuesday that detectives from the Division\u2019s Criminal Investigations Unit, in coordination with the Delaware Department of Justice, presented the case to a grand jury on Monday following &#8220;an extensive weeks-long investigation into the death of 64-year-old Linda Stevenson.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/video\/6387619549112\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>DEMS \u2018LOSE CREDIBILITY\u2019 WHEN THEY \u2018STAY SILENT\u2019 ON THIS, ARGUES FORMER JILL BIDEN CHIEF SPOKESPERSON<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As a result, an indictment was returned by the New Castle County Superior Court charging 77-year-old William Stevenson with Murder in the First Degree,&#8221; the department <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/NewCastleCountyPolice\/posts\/pfbid029168DdHdaNoQzshWJMz6AKP1EwjM8EbH4bNrZ2DLRfQjJ7LTshd91poX3LnTU2PVl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">noted<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In her 2019 book, &#8220;Where the Light Enters,&#8221; former first lady Jill Biden described her feeling of devastation that her first marriage ended in divorce.
